Download Croda Agriculture's comprehensive guide to formulating microbes as biopesticides.

Microbial formulations fail when viability isn't built into the process early enough. The wrong excipient, an incompatible dispersant, or the wrong system altogether — each one can compromise your active ingredient before it ever reaches the field.

This guide covers every stage of formulation development: selecting the right system, choosing compatible ingredients, testing viability rigorously, and troubleshooting when things don't go to plan.

What's inside:

• Formulation type selection: OD, WP and SC systems — benefits, limitations and example recipes
• Compatibility data across nine common bacteria and fungi, including Bacillus, Trichoderma and Beauveria species
• Viability testing methodology: Zone of inhibition, CFU, conidia germination and PrecisionBio™ conidia vigour analysis
• Ready-to-use chassis solutions designed to reduce development time
• Practical troubleshooting for common OD and WP formulation challenges

Less trial and error. More informed decisions, from lab to field.
